Abstract

Four species from Liliaceae family were studied: Bellevalia glauca (Lindl.) Kunth., Bellevalia kurdistanica Feinbrum, Gagea reticulata Salisb. and Ornithogalum brachystachys C.Koch, morphologically and anatomically. Plants were collected from Gurfa-Adhim district between March and May, 2016. Bulb, scape, stem leaves, inflorescence and flowers were examined and variations in size, shape and dimensions were recorded. The results revealed close morphological relationship between Bellevalia galuca and B. kurdistanica in characters: bulbs, stem leaves and stamens, absence of cambium and xylem fibers in outer part of vascular bundle; meanwhile, the two Bellevalia species are varied from Gagea reticulata and Ornithoigalium brachystachys in morphological and anatomical features.
